Here is a painting of Alcenia. All the recipes are hers.
Notice Ghetto Aid. We didn't try any but I wanted to. I stuck with the sweet tea which was plenty sweet!
I ordered fried chicken, green beans and cabbage. OMG, the chicken was so juicy and had a good scald on it. The cabbage and green beans were both spicy and had a caribbean feel to them. Everything was delicious. I cannot wait to go back!

I wonder if 'ghetto aid' is available in handy to-go pouches?
O.K. I'll bite, I gotta know, why is it called the 'pinch' district?

The area was originally known as Pinch-Gut, a seemingly derisive term that referred to the area’s starving Irish immigrants who were so thin that their stomachs were pinched by their belts.
I just learned this myself when I looked it up. A little history lesson for me!

Across the street and down a little from Westie's (North End).
